A climb that could be defined as the "Colle delle Finestre" of the Apennines; slightly less difficult, it remains a long climb and half of it is gravel, with gradients that in the last 6.5 kilometres become hard, almost always above 9, and often in double figures. Beware of the gravel, gravel in less than perfect condition, but I added this climb also to promote a hidden beauty of my territory (I come from nearby Rieti), and I hope to increase the interest of entities such as the provi... read more

Breathtaking ascent. Very aerial the final section (which you can already see goes down). The gravel part has a central part with a very good surface (resurfaced and with asphalt in the bends). The low section is gravel. Above very hard especially the final section as the gradients go up and the gravel becomes very coarse (the fine part is missing, you struggle more and in particular on the descent it is more suitable for a mountain bike than a gravel bike: (with the gravel you need to be very careful because the wheels are not wide enough). Absolutely to be avoided with road bikes, as the website writes. Tip: it is worth continuing from the top of the route slightly downhill to the Sebastiani refuge for a beer and regenerating lunch before descending along the same route. I confirm that it is one of the most beautiful climbs in the Apennines. Today zero cyclists, just my gravel

Salita mozzafiato. Molto aereo il tratto finale (che si vede già fa basso). La parte sterrata ha una parte centrale con ottimo fondo (rifatto e con asfalto nelle curve). Il tratto basso è gravel. Sopra molta dura soprattutto il tratto finale in quanto le pendenze salgono e la ghiaia diventa molto grossa (manca la parte fine, si fatica di più e in particolare in discesa è più adatta ad una mountain bike che ad una gravel: (con la gravel serve fare molta attenzione per le ruote non abbastanza larghe). Assolutamente da evitare con bici da strada come invece scrive il sito. Consiglio:vale la pena proseguire dalla sommità del percorso in leggera discesa verso il rifugio Sebastiani per una birretta e pranzo rigeneratore prima della discesa per lo stesso percorso di salita. Confermo che è una delle più belle salite dell'Appennino. Oggi zero ciclisti, solo la.mia gravel

A climb that could be defined as the "Colle delle Finestre" of the Apennines; slightly less difficult, it remains a long climb and half of it is gravel, with gradients that in the last 6.5 kilometres become hard, almost always above 9, and often in double figures. Beware of the gravel, gravel in less than perfect condition, but I added this climb also to promote a hidden beauty of my territory (I come from nearby Rieti), and I hope to increase the interest of entities such as the province in this road to make a quality dirt road like the Finestre, so that perhaps this climb will also become an interesting landing place for bicycle races.

Salita che si potrebbe definire il "Colle delle Finestre" dell'Appennino; leggermente meno dura, rimane però una salita lunga e per metà sterrata, con pendenze che negli ultimi 6km e mezzo si fanno dure, quasi sempre sopra il 9, e spesso in doppia cifra. Attenzione allo sterrato, ghiaia in condizione non perfetta, ma ho aggiunto questa salita anche per farmi promotore di una bellezza nascosta del mio territorio (vengo dalla vicina Rieti), e spero di aumentare l'interesse di enti come la provincia per questa strada per fare uno sterrato di qualità come quello del Finestre, in modo magari anche da rendere questa salita un approdo interessante per le corse ciclistiche.
